The sheer power of the Musketeer is epic ! Lol . The triad can control the Kami trio but can't stand a chance in front of the Musketeer .
Btw , is that Striaton's memory about Lenora ? What could she say ? I miss her so much .

It's roughly she says,

the reason why Striaton trio are three of a gym because they are endowed the responsibility with the teaching of types rivalry, rather than they are too weak.

And like the game, Striaton trio decided to resign from the gym leader job.

Maybe we will see the Therian Kami vs The Musketeer next time . Btw Flying Legendary vs Fighting Legendary !
Hope to see Mei soon . Even if she will be the new character or she will be White with new clothes . The starters of the other regions have so much battle scene but in BW 1 they only focus on Emboar most time . Hope next time Serperior can shine more . And Hugh's Samurott too .

That was awesome! I loved the scene were the Shadow triad got owned by the musketeer and it was so cute how Keldeo was watching the fight of the Stration trio and the Shadow triad. Damn ever issue makes me more and more curious.

I wish I liked Keldeo more. I might have actually cared to see it if I liked the thing. But anyway I like how violent the battle looks. Then again I remember how Black and White's clothes got ruined when they encountered one of the musketeers so not really surprised to see some much ripped clothes. Pokemon Battles in the extreme where the trainers rip up their clothes to show real battle damage. That is the future of Pokemon battles in Adventures XD

What are those, Unova League competitors? Who's the jackass in the cap and the little kid, why the hell is Looker wearing fake glasses and a fake nose? Looks exciting and unpredictable, wonder how Marlon will be portrayed. Oh and Cheren, almost forgot he existed. Him and Bianca, idga about. Did Black win the Legend Badge solely from his one-on-one against Drayden?

I think the Shadow Triad VS. Striaton Brothers chapters are placed between this and the previous Ichiban chapter. In this picture from the last month's Fan chapter, we see the same Beheeyem and Ferrothorn fighting in the Victory Road: Spoiler:- Here:

And this is from the fresh Ichiban chapter: Spoiler:- There:

Anyway, great to see Cheren, Marlon and Looker! And glad that Black managed to get his 8th Badge after all! The guy in the cape looks more like a Pokémon than a human being. I understand it's a mask but still... But I'm disappointed that Hiker Andy isn't here. : (

Didn't Coronis state that in the previous thread?

The inauguration ceremony has begun, but not the lot drawing, and thus not the Tournament itself).

Ah, he did.

Maybe...maybe he's the guy in the cloak.

Seems random to just have some guy hide his identity like that. At least Looker has a point for it.

Ichiban:
Drayden agrees to Black's challenge at the gate of the Pokemon League, but warns that he doesn't have much time because the performance part of the opening ceremony is about to finish, and he needs t get back to continue hosting the event. Brav has trouble keeping up with Druddigon's speed, even after using Tail Wind, and Drayden notices that Black isn't really connecting with his Pokemon. Black admits that he isn't really at his top shape, because when Musha left, he realized the harsh truth that what he thought was a close bond between him and a childhood Pokemon actually didn't exist. This affects his view on his other childhood Pokemon, Brav. Just when Brav is losing, the front door is flung open, allowing the blizzard outside to blow in, and Caitlin arrives to share with Black what the captured Gymleaders want to say to him (via Gothitelle). Apparently the Gymleaders are safe, but are locked up in some pitch black place and they have no idea where they are. The six Gymleaders voice out their individual encouragement to Black, and Black regains his trust in his Pokemon. He gets Brav to do an Air Slash, barely scratching Druddigon, but the attack swings the gate door open again, allowing in the Blizzard once more. Druddigon gets immobilized due to the cold, and Brav takes the chance to defeat its opponent. Drayden awards Black the Legend Badge, and announces on TV that they have the 32nd participant. And so, the Tournament begins, and the 32 participants are soon halved to 16, and then 8. The last scene shows the 8 final participants: Black, Cheren, Iris, Marlon, Looker, Zinzolin, a trainer that's a cross between a Younger and PokeManiac, and also a mysterious trainer in hood and mask.

Fan:
Outside the P2 Lab, the Striaton brothers continue their fight against the Shadow Triad. Although the Triad mocks the brothers for being weak, unnecessary for the Nacrene battle, and needing 3 people to secure 1 Gym, the brothers reveal that they were in fact individually qualified as an independent Gymleader, but decided to stay in one Gym because Lenora found their combination crucial to beginning trainers, teaching them the concept of types. They also reveal that they were intentionally absent from the Nacrene Gym, because they serve as a backup to chase after the Shadow Triad. Another reason for their absence was their need to locate certain items, which were the evolutionary stones. The brothers evolve their monkeys, and continue to fight the Triad. The Musketeers arrive, and Cobalion is apparently not impressed that humans are fighting against each other again. It tells Keldeo that there are no good and bad sides to humans, but they are all selfish. But Keldeo, after observing the battle, senses an ominous feeling about the Triad, which is the same vibe it gets from the P2 Lab. It decides to cut in, and attacks the Triad as well as their Pokemon. However, it gets ambushed by Lilligant's Grass Knot, and just as the Triad attempt to catch it, the three other Musketeers interrupt. The 3 Musketeers unleash their swords on everyone (yes including the Striaton brothers), and Cobalion mentions to Keldeo that there is another hidden sword, and it needs to learn to access it with its 'resolution'. The Triad, beaten, swear that they will seek revenge when the Kami trio's Therian Forme investigation is complete, and the Striaton brothers decide to abdicate as Gymleaders.

====================

Indeed, this month's issues confirm that the Keldeo chapters happen between the last 2-3 pages of the current Ichiban issue. I wonder what that 'Dark Vader'-like trainer in the League is. Personally I can't think of any important character right now that needs a secret appearance. Wonder if it's someone from before (e.g. Maxie resurrected), somewhere from Unova, some original character or actually just a mysterious placeholder which the writers haven't even decided on who it is yet.

Btw, since the pictures posted by Lolipiece basically cover most of the important scenes already, I won't be rescanning them. Let me know if there are particular scenes that you want to see.

Coronis~

P.S. Eleven Pokemon left from the 5th Gen to get featured now:
Dewott, Gigalith, Krookodile, Zoroark, Reunicles, Sawsbuck, Jellicent (male), Klang, Chadelure, Haxorus, Mandibuzz
(just realized that Musharna has had an appearance already, but in the form of Black's explanation of Munna's nickname choice)

Thank you very much Coronis!! And thanks for the pictures guys!
Holy ****! That's what a amazing Pokemon League should look like.
But Iris is in there too?! You know what that means. She will probably win the tournament and not Black.
But I hope Lookers appereance means that the plasma castle will shoot out of the ground, just like in the games x)
And the guy with cloak is strange. I am sure he will be very important somehow.
